It also provides a good yield, especially for sole and heavy leathers, and in the retanning of wet-blue, Weibull Roy Special results in a firm and thin grain, good filling properties, buffability and print retention.

Syntac CA is a combination of polymers and complex agents recommended to increase the yield and to complement the fixation of tannins. It is suitable for all types of sole leather and saddlery. It has been designed to allow rapid and complete absorption by the fibres, keeping a uniform colour and a good buffing properties.
